Nicola: It's pretty hot. There's a lot of beaches and a lot of rainforests.
Todd: Oh, rainforests, really!
Nicola: Yeah!
Todd: Do you go in the rainforest often?
Nicola: Occasionally my friends and I go hiking there, but not that often.
Todd: OK. Are there really big snakes?
Nicola: Ahhhh..I haven't seen any yet.
Todd: OK, that's good. That's good. How do you feel about Australia?
Nicola: It's a beautiful place to live. I like travelling, so I like seeing other countries. But when I go home I am always happy to be there. OK. Yeah, that's nice. I kind of feel the same way about America.
Nicola: Mm.
Todd: How would you compare Australia and Japan?
Nicola: They are very different. Japanese people are quite busy, Australians are prettylaid back. OK. OK. I see we're just about out of time so anyway thanks.
Nicola: OK. Thank you.
